Thoughts and Resources for Making Disciples

Sermons Aren't Finished, They're Preached

The title of this post–Sermons Aren’t Finished, They’re Preached–is something I have experienced since I started preaching some 15 years ago. I keep laboring over what I will say and how I will say it (sometimes even rearranging my points on Saturday night!) until the moment I step into the pulpit. Each week my last private prayer before I ascend the platform and lead in a pastoral prayer is, “Father help me understand your Word.”
